Madeleine Vionnet inspired Striped Cowl Evening Dress

My inspiration for the "Striped Cowl Evening Dress" came from the legendary couturier Madeleine Vionnet who was famous for the "bais cut," and her timeless elegant style. I employed a draping technique and cut the 100% silk charmuese on the bias. This dress won the Second Place for special occasion category at the fashion design competition held by Fashion Group International of Kansas City in 2006.
